Could it be true that EA are copying tank models from Warhammer 40k for use in its browser-based real-time strategy game Command & Conquer Tiberium Alliances?

The next comparison is for the Forgotten Grinder Tank, which resembles the Ork Bonecruncha, again created in 1995 by Games Workshop. You can see the image below:
We’ve contacted EA for comment.
